May be good for very old 70's rock band dudes with R8 or that horrible car credit firm in the UK...

You can reserve a license plate and resell it in the UK?

US $9,500 for a plate? Seems a bit excessive, even for those who can afford an R8.

My custom plate was $50 -- MMIXR8

I have a German ,metal plate that says RRRRRRRR 8 .Everyone loved that plate EXCEPT for Johnny Law who made me take it off on the spot. He was a real ARSHLOH.I had run the plate for months.ALL the local coppers were cool except for the one,an overweight stuffed donuts only diet type of dude !!!

Number plates make big money in the UK. One sold in January this year for £440,000 !

yep, the uk government themselves auction off "vanity" plates for big money:

according to the 2007/08 accounts the dvla took £86,948,000 from the sale of marks that year alone (which will include normal as well as vanity), plus £44m in fees for vanity plate transfers.

have to remember that unlike the us, we have just one central authority issuing unique plates for the whole country - some 30 million vehicles all needing plates. basic supply and demand...

London Lad & randombloke, thank you for explaining the UK vehicle registration plate market.

I think I should of created this thread for UK Audi R8 owners only. I did not realise how cheap plates were worth outside the UK.

Anyway, the plate is still for sale if any UK owners are interested. Will take offers.
